A teaching portfolio serves a dual purpose: it allows teaching staff to document and reflect on their teaching experiences and teaching-related qualifications as a tool for pedagogical development, and it may be used in the appointment for academic positions as a tool for assessing an applicant's experience and qualifications.

Below you will find a selection of literature on teaching portfolios and instructions on how to create your own teaching portfolio in AAU's Research Information Management System, PURE.
